2016 has been a year of tremendous female empowerment in country music, making the choice for Woman of the Year in the 2016 Taste of Country Fan Choice Awards that much more difficult.
The nominees for Album of the Year in the 2016 Taste of Country Fan Choice Awards are an interesting mix of young and veteran artists, working in a variety of commercial and more cutting-edge aspects of the format to encompass everything that's great about country music right now.
The 2016 CMA Awards are set to take place on Nov. 2, and this year's broadcast is gearing up to be especially exciting, as the ceremony is celebrating 50 years!
